We're working with a fantastic contemporary sailing yacht brand based in Germany as they seek an all-round design engineer to join them, working on a range of yachts in the 70-100ft space. 

Ten years ago this exciting brand brought to market a contemporary and minimalist style of yacht that caught the industry off-guard. Using colours and finishes more at home in a scandanavian city, the brand has grown a real following and launched countless more vessels between 70 and 100ft. Today they build 5-7 yachts a year, all semi custom or full custom and sold to a mixture of global clients. 

Deputising to the head of engineering the role will include the following duties:

- Design and engineering of systems, interiors, composites and deck gear

- Creation of composite mouldings, structures and laminate schedules 

- Specification and selection of onboard machinery and systems 

- Support production through pre-build and in-build phases, troubleshooting and making design changes to maintain build quality, NVH and to meet cost targets. 

In candidate we seek an individual with a naval architecture or mechanical engineering background and a passion for sailing. You'll be confident working on composite craft to engineer across a multitude of different disciplines and be able to work with those around you to guarantee outcomes that are of the highest quality. 5+ years of solidworks experience is also necessary. 

You'll be joining a small but very talented engineering team based on site at the shipyard and have the opportunity to see your work come to life. Career growth and development are offered for the right candidate alongside a chance to work on full custom projects and challenges. A strong salary is offered alongside accommodation support locally.
